Comparison of non-contact infrared thermometry and rectal thermometry in cats. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Feline Med Surg, 2016
Objectives Body temperature is commonly used for assessing health and identifying infectious diseases in cats. Rectal thermometry, the most commonly used method, is stressful, invasive and time consuming. Non-contact infrared thermometry (NIRT) has been used with mixed success to measure temperature in humans ...
